Lady Gaga Pays Tribute To David Bowie With New Tattoo Ahead Of Grammy Performance | Music News

Lady Gaga got a large tattoo of the late David Bowie on her ribcage and stomach, ahead of her tribute performance at today’s Grammy Awards. The tattoo is one of Bowie dressed as his alter ego Ziggy Stardust, as he is on the front of the 1973 album, Aladdin Sane. This tribute to “Starman” Bowie comes only just prior to her eight minute long dedication to him at today’s awards.

Bowie has been a constant inspiration throughout her career, and she said, “I always felt that his glamour was something he was using to express a message to people that was very healing for the souls. He is a true, true artist and I don’t know if I ever went, ‘Oh I’m going to be that way like this’ or if I arrived upon it slowly, realising it was my calling and that’s what drew me to him”.

I've always wanted to be involved in the media since before I even left school; to write for a living.I feel most eloquent when mapping out my thoughts on paper or on a computer screen.I studied media at college for two years, and went straight into third year at university studying publishing with journalism.After a range of work experience, I did a magazine journalism course in Bournemouth, a long way away from my hometown of Aberdeen, achieving my NCTJ qualifications.Now I spend my time gladly writing about music.
